Visits down to Summerton are long, but well worth the miles on my little car. At the end of the yellow brick road awaits Daniel, and not to far behind, Buster. Daniel is my darling boyfriend that i could not imagine life without, and buster is his best-friend. Buster is always in tow, and used to make a point of sitting right in between Daniel and I on the couch when we first started dating. He's warmed up to me since then...but i think it's only because i give good belly rubs :)

goodmorning everyone! it has been one chilly week so far...don't let these pictures fool you, i was freezing when i took them! this fall and wintery weather has come upon us georgians with full force, and i'm shocked i'm even saying this but it's a refreshing contrast from our muggy, and hot summers.

today i'm mixing up my wardrobe to concentrate on a laid back chic look. i love how johnny depp's strange fashion choices have made a quirky fashion trend for this past summer and fall. if you want to add a bit of edge or flair to a laid down look, a casual and cozy flannel will do the trick... as well as help keep you warm, along with a cup of coffee :)

i hope you all have had great weeks! we're busy little bees at work getting ready for the holiday season!

goodmorning everyone!

as our weeks start yet again with a beautiful, and sunny day, i caught myself reminiscing...

when i was a little girl my mom or dad would always tuck me into bed, and often times would lay down with me while i feel asleep. my mom would scratch my back as i drifted off into dream land but my father, the big strong man that he was would just hold on to me as tight as he could. i would fall asleep literally in a bear hug, and it was always the safest i would ever feel. my father just had a way of protecting me, and a safety in his presence and his voice that i will always miss. today i am cloaked in his love, wearing a sweater i remember him always having, and feeling safe, loved, and... hugged.

happy monday and veterans day, may God bless you as you venture out today.

happy wednesday everyone!

today i spent the afternoon cleaning out my closet...finally, i think i've been saying i was going to do that for about 2 months. it was out with really old and in with my winter clothes that have been in storage. i still have some filtering out to do but i think i definitely made some head way on getting my closet a little more organized, something that is a constant struggle! during my closet overhaul i pulled out my tried and true blue blazer...actually a hand-me-down from my grandmother. she purchased the jacket while studying abroad in oxford. i think this will stay in my closet forever!! such an amazing piece, and so beautifully made that it is my closet classic. when pairing this heavier blazer i stuck to a light cotton button up. stick to something a little lighter underneath so that you don't get too warm...it's not too cold yet down south!
